Chapter 2031 Dragon Vein Inheritance 4

The guards remained frozen in place, immobilized by the weight of the order they had just heard. Even without their master"s command, they wouldn"t dare to budge. Instead, their attention s.h.i.+fted towards the Second Prince.

Among the princes, the Second Prince was notorious for his lack of progress in cultivation. He had schemed and plotted extensively against Yan Wuji, and now he stood at the dragon"s vein, desperate to claim its inheritance. The consequences of his failure were uncertain, leaving the guards hesitant to make a move for fear of provoking the Second Prince and meeting a grim fate.

Yuan Xiangchen refrained from issuing any further instructions to the guards. As the Second Prince, he couldn"t rely solely on arrogance and ignorance. He possessed his own intellect, which guided him in this critical moment. Within this secluded location, they were the sole occupants, surrounded by an a.s.sortment of complex array formations.

Whether it was an array that nullified spiritual energy or one that prohibited access to the dragon"s vein, these intricate arrays were beyond his reach. The mastermind behind these formations must be someone of higher stature, someone linked to the guardians of the dragon"s vein. Moreover, the voice he had heard had undeniably emanated from the depths of the dragon"s vein itself.

It was common knowledge that the dragon"s vein held great legacies. Even as the Second Prince of the Shenyou Dynasty, he wouldn"t dare to act recklessly within this sacred s.p.a.ce. Recognizing the gravity of the situation, he gestured for his guards to withdraw and cease their movements, understanding the need for utmost caution.

Soon after he gave the signal, a mult.i.tude of individuals began converging at the entrance. They arrived one after another, their expressions filled with antic.i.p.ation as they glanced at the feast that lay before them. Just as the Second Prince dismissed his guards, these people entered, their smirks aimed directly at him. Yan Xiangchen realized they had likely been waiting outside, eagerly antic.i.p.ating his exploration of the dragon"s vein.

Yuan Xiangchen"s displeasure was evident, his countenance contorted with a menacing expression. He had always been the one orchestrating schemes, never allowing himself to be ensnared in the plans of others. However…

The dragon"s vein had issued a stern warning, compelling him to exercise caution and refrain from taking any rash actions within its sacred grounds. He had to bear that in mind.

"Second Brother, let"s not start any conflicts here. Fighting is strictly forbidden within the dragon"s vein. Stay calm," the Fourth Prince interjected with a smile.

Having observed Yan Xiangchen"s arrival and requesting him to lead the way, the Fourth Prince exhibited no fear towards him. Despite being older, the Second Prince possessed the lowest cultivation level, making him less favored by their father. Hence, the Fourth Prince harbored no apprehensions.

Upon hearing the Fourth Prince"s words, a sneer escaped the lips of those present.

No matter how incensed Yuan Xiangchen felt, he had to restrain his anger.

Finally, he grasped the situation.

They should have arrived long before him.

Yet, they had cowered in fear of the potential perils and tasked him with leading the way.

"Why is the dragon"s vein restricted to a 500-meter radius? And why is spiritual energy unusable within its boundaries? It"s rather peculiar," someone inquired, clearly unaware of the reasons behind these limitations. They had likely obtained the information from their family and hastened to this location.

In response to the query, the Fourth Prince saw no harm in elucidating.

"The dragon"s vein is formed from the resting place of fallen dragons. As for the prohibition on fighting, it stems from the peaceful nature of this particular dragon. Furthermore, there is only one inheritance here because this dragon arrived on our Shenyou Continent seeking refuge. Unfortunately, its injuries proved too severe, leading to its demise."

"…"

"After its demise, the residual spiritual power naturally converged to create the dragon"s veins in this location."
